Futaba T8J Setup:
*** Please ensure that your computer is fully up to date with the latest drivers including controller drivers.
We’ll be using a USB dongle to connect to the computer. Click here for the cable.
*** Keep in mind that there are many different USB dongles available on the market for connecting RC controllers to the computer. Please be sure that you have a USB dongle that is compatible for your specific controller.
We have found that the USB Dongle that has a switch on the side works the best and putting this switch in the #2 position works best.
- First power on the controller.
- Hold down the plus button for 2-3 seconds until the menu shows up.
- Next use the “Jog Key” ( see manual for details, this is the small round rubber moveable button in the lower right of the controller.) and move up until you get to “AUX-CHAN” then click the “Jog Key” in.
- You will see CH5-CH8 listed vertically. While on CH5 hit the + or - button until it changes to SwF. This will now allow the “F” toggle switch to be activated on the controller.
- Next scroll down with the “Jog Key” to CH6 and using the +/- button, change this to SwH. This will activate the “H” toggle switch to be used.
- Now hit the End button to go back to the main screen.
- You can now plug in your controller and launch the game.
- Now go into “settings”, “CONTROLLER SETUP”> "AUTO CALIBRATION", Go through the on screen prompts to finish the setup and you’re free to fly..

how can futaba T10CG connect with DRL Simulator?
Hi Afandi!
We here at DRL do not have that controller, so we have not confirmed that it works, however I'm sure there have been users to get that controller to work with the sim. And it seems that you may be able to follow the instructions from the T14SG and get the idea for setting it up. It may not be exact, but the premise may be similar enough to get you set up.
Also be sure to join our Discord Server where there are lots of other users from the community that can help with all sorts of things, as well as finding people to fly with!!
Here is the link for that: https://discord.gg/b9RZ5yZ
Best of luck to ya!!
